Proso Millet Seed
Founded in 2014, Dryland Genetics is the nation’s leading proso millet breeding company. They help growers produce a sustainable and profitable crop by bringing modern-day genetics to a centuries-old grain. Our varieties enable our customers to raise higher yields with less water and fewer inputs, which creates a more environmentally conscious agricultural landscape for future generations.
DLG 240
DLG 240 is a medium to late maturing, white seeded proso millet variety with dark green foliage, good straw strength and a compact panicle. Its higher grains per panicle and longer grain filling period results in a 10-20% higher yield compared to other commercially available varieties.
This variety needs a full season to complete its growth and yield advantage, so planting in early June is highly recommended.
DLG 197
DLG 197 is a medium early maturing, white seeded proso millet variety with very high drought tolerance and test weight.
This variety has shown strong yields in low moisture conditions. This is a great choice for growers with tougher ground that want better yields.
DLG 317
DLG 317 is a medium maturing, white seeded proso millet variety. While it has only been tested three years, the results have been impressive. It is part of our breeding work to develop a more uniform maturing variety. It has shown yields like DLG 240.
We grew a small seed increase and recommend it for growers who may think 240 is too late for them
